Summer Wedding at Nativity Catholic Church and The Regent | Riverview Wedding Photographer
 

When Ana and Alex went out for a walk around a local park, little did she know it would change her life forever.  But her sister and cousin knew all along because they’d been secretly helping Alex plan a surprise proposal.  About a year later, on a Saturday morning in June, Ana and Alex took another life changing walk. This time they became husband and wife.

Friends and family gathered to witness their wedding at Nativity Catholic Church in Brandon. Then it was off to The Regent later that day for a dance filled evening.  And we do mean spectacular, wow-inducing dancing!

Ana and Alex, your wedding was lovely and the most beautiful part of your wedding day was seeing how loved you are by your family and friends. It was an honor to document your first day of marriage and may your partnership be blessed with love and happiness. A big thank you goes out to your wedding party for braving the Florida sunshine with us.
